Must Stash University is opening the School of Stash this spring!! A new virtual school for knitting hosted by Must Stash. Join the Ravelry group so you won’t miss a thing!

Here is what you want to know: enrollment opens on February 15th and you must use Must Stash yarn to knit your socks. Don’t have a Skein and want to join in the fun? I have a special color way just for students called “Kama Sutra” in honor of our first term, Socks Education. It has 20 or 22 stripes!!! When you claim your seat in the Enrollment thread on Ravelry LET ME KNOW YOU WANT/NEED a skein and you will receive a link for the exclusive skein (very clock and dagger!).

Our first term Professors are:

Megan Williams (justrunknit of the Stockinette Zombies) OMG Heel which is $4.34 and can be used with virtually with any other sock pattern.

Jessica Larson (Goosebearknits) Afterthought a la Carte which is $6 and Jessica is offering 25% off now through Feb 28th with the coupon code StashU. Jessica is also hosting a KAL in her Ravelry group, Goosebear Knits, during March so head over there to check it out!

Cristi Payne (Turtlegirl76) Basic Sock with a Double Gusset Heel which is FREE and Cristi is offering 25% off her other pattern, Tortuga Twist, with the coupon code SoS2015. Tortuga Twist has the DG heel but more interest for the accomplished sock knitter!

Each class will run from March 1st through March 31st. Each Professor may host a VKN or join one that I host and there will be lots of fun chatter in the SoS main thread this month!

The FO thread will be locked on Saturday, April 4th, and Graduation Badges will be awarded to all eligible students!! For successfully completing each class (pair of socks), you will be awarded one of the following: a discount code for my shop, free Priority shipping upgrade coupon or an exclusive shopping offer!

Giveaways:

Scholarship! This week, we are giving away a skein of Must Stash Perfect Sock in the “Kama Sutra” colorway to one eligible Stasher! To be eligible, all you have to do is, join the Must Stash yarn group and enroll in the School of Stash Socks Ed thread. I will randomly pick the student and announce the winner on the next podcast.
